Hi, just some more info about this.
I noticed that when a host had one user in BackupPC 2.1.2, and I add
more users after upgrade to version 3.0.0beta3, the line

This is not the case when a PC

You could contact the maintainer and ask if an update is in the works
or maybe use Debian's Bug Tracker. I'm pretty sure you can also
Hi Christophe,
I would not really worry about an update. I have always updated without
a single problem and this since version 1 of BackupPC.

Due to the code freeze in Debian for the release of Etch as stable

My main backuppc file repository ran out of disk space last week. I had
it running on a software RAID 1 array, without LVM, a 120GB ext3 partition.
So over the weekend I put in two new 320GB drives, configured them for

Maybe I shouldn't chime in, because I've only been half following this
thread, but I can't help wondering if you've looked into all the
firewall/timeout possibilities? Sometimes those settings get hosed during
an upgrade too.

Also, you might crank up the timeout settings for just the failing hosts
and see if it allows your backups to run longer before failing. Your
failures are right about 20 minutes into them, which is a suspiciously
round number.
